We are a split-site school, with a short walk of approximately 8 minutes between sites, and on-site parking is available.
Alperton Community School is a large, mixed 11-18 academy, with over 350 students in our thriving Sixth Form. Due to our growing popularity and continued success, we have recently expanded our intake to 12 forms in each year group.
We are a truly inclusive school, reflecting the wonderfully diverse and vibrant local community we serve. Our students are exceptionally well behaved, hardworking, and ambitious to succeed.
In our most recent Ofsted inspection (March 2026), the school was graded Strong standard and Expected standard, with inspectors noting:
- “Pupils enjoy attending this diverse and inclusive school. They feel a strong sense of belonging, which is evident in the positive relationships they have with staff and with each other.”
- “Pupils are kept safe and they know whom to talk to if they have any concerns.”
Student progress at both GCSE and A Level has consistently been well above national averages. Outcomes for disadvantaged students closely match those of their peers. In 2023, our Progress 8 score was 0.82 (well above average), and our A Level progress placed us in the top 1% of schools nationally. A high proportion of our students go on to study at Oxbridge and other Russell Group universities.
Attendance across the school is excellent, and the percentage of students continuing into education, employment or training is significantly above the national average.
Our achievements have been recognised with several recent accolades, including the 2022 Pearson Making a Difference Award. We were also shortlisted for the TES School of the Year and won the TES Maths Team of the Year.
This is an exceptional opportunity to join a friendly, highly supportive, and committed team within a culture of success and professional growth. The school offers outstanding support for Early Career Teachers during their induction year.
